Megan Greenwell's book, 'Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream,' examines the impact of private equity firms on businesses. These firms often focus on maximizing profits, which can undermine the long-term viability of various organizations. This approach leads to detrimental effects on workers, consumers, and the broader economy. Greenwell connects these practices to a decline in the American Dream, suggesting that the quest for short-term gains has broader implications for societal wellbeing and economic health.
Private equity firms frequently prioritize short-term profits, compromising the long-term sustainability of businesses. This creates negative consequences for workers, consumers, and the overall economy.
Megan Greenwell argues that the practices of private equity contribute to a larger narrative about the erosion of the American Dream, highlighting significant ramifications beyond just financial metrics.
